[Verse 1] This sounds so funny Are you sure this is alright? I'm feeling so ugly... Somehow this is fine [Verse 2] This looks so wrong So out of time Why worry at all Why caring so hard [Verse 3] This feels so strange So out of place It's been so long I've been so late [Bridge] Turning around and around and around [Chorus] I'm done breaking things And calling a day I've moved all around But now I'm misplaced I'm done breaking things And calling a day I've moved all around But now I'm misplaced [Bridge] Turning around and around and around [Verse 4] This should be so nice... But look where we are... Nothing seems to fit... Even trying hard... [Verse 5] This better be so closer... Can you just go faster?... Give me some space... Give back my time [Verse 6] This must be the end... Or else a mistake... Skipping the start... Going back again [Bridge] Turning around and around and around [Chorus] I'm done breaking things And calling a day I've moved all around But now I'm misplaced I'm done breaking things And calling a day I've moved all around But now I'm misplaced I'm done giving names And spoiling my day Stop one last time And just be okay [Bridge] Turning around and around and around
